Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for x as an exponent, we need to use logarithms in order to undo the operation and rearrange the terms. We use log rules to bring down the exponent and solve. Logarithms are the inverse operations to exponents and vice versa. We have one special kind of logarithm called the natural logarithm whose base is e. We write it as ln. Since our base is e here, we will use the natural logarithm to rearrange and isolate x.

We begin by applying the natural logarithm to each side.

Log rules allow use to rearrange the exponent as multiplication in front of the log.

ln e as an inverse simplifies to 1.

We now apply the inverse operations for subtraction and multiplication.

Option A is correct.
Answer:
37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Option 3:
m∠ABC = 66°
Solution:
Given
and ABH is a transversal line.
m∠FAB = 48° and m∠ECB = 18°
m∠ECB = m∠HCB = 18°
<u>Property of parallel lines:
</u>
<em>If two parallel lines cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are equal.</em>
m∠FAB = m∠BHC
48° = m∠BHC
m∠BHC = 48°
<u>Exterior angle of a triangle theorem:
</u>
<em>An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.</em>
m∠ABC = m∠BHC + m∠HCB
m∠ABC = 48° + 18°
m∠ABC = 66°
Option 3 is the correct answer.
Answer:
1) x = 30
2) x = 11.6
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 2x = 4x - 60 (vertical angles are equal)
subtract 4x from each side of the equation:
-2x = - 60
divide both sides by -2:
x = 30
2) 7x + 16 + 3x + 48 = 180° (supplementary angles add up to 180°)
combine like terms:
10x + 64 = 180
subtract 64 from both sides of the equation:
10x = 116
divide both sides by 10:
x = 11.6
